CALIFORNIAN PICNIC.
The Gathering of the Clans at East Park
Saturday

hO 0dtncIluR Oh the Ckan6 8t East Park
Saturday.
The eleventh annual gathering and
games of the Sacramento Caledonian Club
was held in East Park Grove on Saturday
last. Notwithstanding the prevailing
strong south wind, which rendered the
day very disagreeable, many hundred peo-
pie were in attendance, in fact it is said to
have been as large gathering as that of
last year. Representative Scotchmen were
present from all portions of the State, and,
under the excellent management of the
several committees, the picnic was a grand
success. The Hussar Band furnished
music for the dancing platform, while six
Highlanders, with bagpipes, furnished
music for the Scottish dances and: games.
The Sacramento Society of California Pho
neers and visiting Caledonian Clubs were
guests of the local club, and were hospit-
ably entertained at Chief Logan's tent.
The games were not completed until late
kept up until midnight. Prizes were
awarded as follows:
